The Forte de Santo Antônio da Barra, which the lighthouse sits inside, is one of the oldest forts in the Americas. Its first tower was begun in 1536 under Francisco Pereira Coutinho, the first grantee of the Bahia captaincy, and it was enlarged and reworked repeatedly over the next two centuries. The lighthouse itself dates to 1698, and sources commonly call it the first in Latin America or South America's oldest.
The fort stands where Todos os Santos Bay meets the open Atlantic, which is exactly why it was built here: every ship heading for Salvador's port had to pass this point. That geography explains why the Barra stop feels so different from Pelourinho, a few kilometers up the coast.
Pelourinho takes its name from the pillory, or whipping post, once placed in the old town's squares, where enslaved Africans were publicly punished. The area was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1985, and today the same streets are a center of Afro-Brazilian music, food and religion. A private guide lets you hold the two stories together rather than hear only the postcard version.
